Eye Guide Updates

Last year our chapter purchased a device called "Eye Guide", designed to be used as an eye-tracking tool in order to assist designers and developers analyse user interactions with computers and other devices and improve usability. Although I don't believe anyone has used the tool yet I would really like to encourage each of you to think of an application and try it out. It does not take long to figure out and puts some cool technology in our hands. I'd love to see someone from our chapter use it, then report on it here.

As a follow up, I thought I would share a video about how the developers of this device continue to move forward. I have to put in a disclaimer here, however...the inventor, the man in the video, is the chairman of my dissertation committee and works at the university I attend. I'm just so impressed with the ways they keep moving forward with this technology finding more innovative ways to use it. Check out the video below if you get a few minutes free.
